Joy is not the reward for a calm life.

I used to treat joy like a prize you unlock after you “handle everything.”
Which is hilarious, because everything is never handled. Ever.

Joy is not the reward for a calm life. Joy is the skill you build so the storm doesn’t steal your whole week. Tiny moments count. The warm shower counts. The good song counts. The five quiet minutes where your brain finally stops running worst case scenario counts.

Find one drop today. Hold it like it matters. Because it does.
